how about a bling-bling thread......
i'll start................
this was in the shop today, spinner wheels, suade/leather interior (tan/blue) and clumsy doors. they refabricated hinges so they'd only open about 1/3 of normal then they flip forward.......average engineering imo. it did have a mobile satalite antenna on the roof for all the tv's ![]() ![]() ![]()

I saw those hub cap spinners at a pepboys. I looked at the price and was shocked. They are made of really cheap plastic and they where charging $50 for a set of two.
Looked to be 14 inchers. The 15's where sold out. Guess it is better than the $1000's that those anchors would cost. As for the picture...... Why?

I was driving my 911 behind a guy with those hubcaps. Stupid jerk wouldn't let me pass, every time I sped up, he did. I was afraid one would detach from the wheel and I'd run it over.

You build doors like that into a car to make it harder to get into. It's like an automatic filter for fat chicks, you see. Can't get into my car? Must be too fat, take a hike, lady! Really simplifies the process of selection.

![]() ![]() Does a chop-top, gull-winged Fiero on 18s count as bling?

I wouldn't consider the Fiero bling. It's too clean, too original. It I would replace those wheels with something more proportionate, like 16's.

Those are Semi-Scissor doors as well. Gullwings hinge entirely from the roof.

Well, the biggest problem with the 914 was trying to figure out which end of the door to open. You had to look to see which side the steering wheel was on to figure out which end was the front.

Guys, I'm pretty sure that Cayenne is owned by a Pelican member...
